RAYE reveals how she celebrated BRIT Awards triumph
RAYE has revealed she celebrated her success with a McDonaldâs at around 6am after making history at the awards.
The 26-year-old also revealed that her grandmother Agatha who she had taken on stage stayed at an after-party until about 3am.
Speaking about the evening on ITV1âs The Jonathan Ross Show, she said: âTo be honest I was so overwhelmed that I was ready to jump straight into bed, so it was either go straight to bed or go hard, do you know what I mean? So we went with that option.â
She added: âWe had a lovely time. I did end up in McDonaldâs about 6am.â
On the show, TV presenter Ross, 63, surprised Raye with a video of the moment, as she was seen ordering a bacon McMuffin and triple hashbrown in McDonaldâs at the end of the night.
Speaking about her grandmother, Raye added: âShe came to the after-party, she was there until about 3am.â
RAYE described Agathaâs dance moves as âimpeccableâ and better than her own.
When she collected the album of the year prize during the Brits, her sixth of the night, she brought her grandmother up on stage with her and told the crowd that her middle name was Agatha in her honour.
Following her success at the BRITs, RAYE also revealed that she had received flowers from Sir Elton John.
âDo you know what, I got flowers from Sir Elton John, a big deal, he wrote me a card and everything,â she said.
âIt said âI canât wait to tell you in person what your music means to meâ.â
Which BRIT Awards did RAYE win?
During the ceremony, Raye won the best album award for her record My 21st Century Blues and was handed the gong for songwriter of the year â the first woman to get the prize in a pre-announced win.
She also won Artist of the Year, Best New Artist, R&B Act and Song of the Year.

Explaining the decision, he said: âIâve got a new tour called Giraffe, and when youâre a 38-year-old comedian at the Brits, no-one cares, so I wore that to pathetically get attention, and then everyone took photos and spoke to me about it.â
He added: âI was getting in everyoneâs way, Dua Lipa was like âwhy is there a Giraffe?ââ
Alongside Beckett on the pre-recorded show were Liam Gallagher and John Squire, who discussed their new collaborative album, actress Millie Bobby Brown and darts superstar Luke Littler.
